Absolutely loved it! This book got me gripped from the start, the writing was really engaging and so easy to read. I liked the exploration of the topics covered, it's an in depth exploration on femininity and sexuality, and the roles reversed around male gaze and misogyny *chefs kiss*. I loved how obsession and power is explored, this book has so much depth, with every read I think you would get more from this book.
Typically books focusing on art are not my thing, as I find it hard to picture art 😉 and I don't tend to know the references, but I felt this book was accessible, if you don't know the photography/art "scene". The artists mentioned felt fictional even if they were not and the art narrative really facilitated the plot.
Although this book covers alot of dark topics. As the plot continued it got even more grotesque and horrific. It was very funny in parts with a few laugh out loud moments dotted throughout.
I loved this book! The protagonist is flawed, relatable, awful, unreliable and horrific, I felt many emotions towards he, and I liked how you second guessed if her narrative was real or not, becoming more delusionsl as the book progressed. I would re-read in a heartbeat and highly recommend.
